摘要
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of 16S rDNA profiles were objectively digitized using an image analyzer; the individual microbial species in a community can thus be precisely quantified. The similarity between various microbial communities was compared to the digitized DGGE profiles using the cluster analyses technique. The microbial community in a biofilm was considerably different from that in suspended sludge obtained from the same system.
